The complete list of GOP lawmakers reacting to Trump's 'go back' tweet

The vast majority of Republican members of Congress have not said anything publicly about President Trump’s Sunday morning tweet that four Democratic House members should “go back” to the “places from which they came.”

Days after he issued the tweet, 141 members of his party have offered a range of responses: Some flat-out rebuked Trump’s remarks, while others took the opportunity to criticize Democrats at the same time they condemned the president’s words. Others responded by embracing Trump and the sentiments in the tweet.

Read each lawmaker’s initial statements about Trump’s comments below. Four Republicans joined Democrats in approving a resolution condemning Trump’s comments.

one troubling list of comments from way too many Republicans.
I am in total awe that so many can still face the public and support and defend this flaming idiot.
We can only hope that the true public can see, hear, and think about what is being said and realize what a mess we are in.
I will admit that there were quite a few comments sent to some of those Pugs regarding their positions - perhaps there is hope out there.

GAWD, we've really gotta' GET OUT THE VOTE!!!!!!!
